Wait a minute now, this makes no sense Yahoo! Sports (my source for the above) is saying CP averaged 7.8 ypc last year, but 8.7 yards after.
Never mind then.
But anyway, JC's accuracy should be high and only getting higher. That's the whole point of the WCO isn't it? Short, accurate passes within 5-7 yards. How often did Jerry Rice catch a deep bomb? More often than not it was a slant across the middle and then he took off

This means CP, on average, caught his 28 receptions about one yard behind the line of scrimmage, ran 8.7 yards, and netted 7.8 on the play.
Makes sense. He was the target on dump offs and screens.
